For over a decade, Purdue University’s Inspire Research Institute for Pre-College Engineering has assembled an expert-reviewed list of toys that develop science, technology, engineering, and math skills. This year’s gift guide focuses on microelectronics, the tiny circuits and chips that make modern life possible. Purdue University’s SCALE K-12 program works directly with school districts to develop curriculums that integrate microelectronics across all subjects and prepare students for defense-related microelectronics careers. Jennifer Heap wanted to “look at some of the toys and books used in the curriculum at SCALE K-12, and put some of those onto the gift guide”. The selections must reflect different age levels and price points and cover all of the different categories, such as circuitry, robotics, coding, and programming. This year, a book by EOS/ESD Association, Inc.

volunteer Jeff Dunnihoo, owner of Pragma Design, was selected. EOS/ESD Association, Inc. is donating the complete book series to local elementary school libraries as part of its school-aged STEM activities. Executive Director Lisa Pimpinella said she is “excited to introduce the younger generation to the electronics industry through this fantastic series. This is a great way to introduce EOS/ESD Association, Inc.’s mission to the local community”. EOS/ESD Association, Inc., was established in 1982 by a group of engineers at Griffis Air Force Base, Rome, NY, to address static electricity in the manufacturing process.

In the last 46 years, the Association has grown its focus, mission, and volunteers worldwide, and its headquarters are still located in Rome. E--Efficient, everlasting, and experience ESDA Volunteer Jeff Dunnihoo was recently featured by Purdue University’s Inspire Research Institute for Pre-College Engineering as the #1 children's book on their pre-engineering STEM gift giving guide this year, and it is being... This will be rolled out on the PBS series "Chip Kids" in January. Engineers Choose the Ten Best STEM Toys to Gift in 2024 Creative circuitry and rolling robots make up this year’s top toys for teaching kids to love science, technology, engineering and math

Each holiday season, adults face an avalanche of gift options for the children in their lives. Finding toys that are not only fun but also educational can be a challenge. Tom Ricciardelli received a BS and MS in Chemical Engineering from MIT in 1985 and an MBA from the Sloan School of Management in 1991. In 1993, he founded SelecTech with the mission of creating valuable products from recycled materials. He has over 20 years experience with developing unique polymer blends to meet demanding technical requirements and holds several patents for products and processes using recycled materials. He was the first to conceive of and develop an adhesive-free, interlocking static-control flooring system which paved the way for the StaticStop line of industry-leading ESD flooring products.

With this product, he was flung headlong into the ESD industry and joined the EOS/ESD Association in 2013 to become more involved in the industry and better understand the full needs of his customers. He is now the chair of WG 7 and a member of WG19, WG97, and the Marketing Communications committees. "While I have a strong engineering background with degrees in chemical engineering, my knowledge of electronics and ESD was certainly limited. Being involved in the EOS/ESD Association, through the committees, the available training information, and generous support from other members, I’ve learned a vast amount about ESD and its control. I particularly enjoy networking with the other members, working with them on the committees, and having a little fun during the free time." Tom is married to Linda and has three sons, Andrew (22), Clark (20), and James (18).

Tom enjoys playing hockey in his Friday morning hockey group, and most anything outdoors, particularly, hiking, biking, skiing, running, and kayaking. Living in the Boston area with its strong sports culture, he also loves watching the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins.
